Summary
In this paper we present recent results on the use of wavelet-based mesh adaptation
criteria. The technique has been incorporated into the structured adaptive mesh refinement
(SAMR) algorithms implemented in the AMROC (Adaptive Mesh Refinement in
Object-oriented C++) framework. With this tool we can compute locally the wavelet
coefficients by means of a two-level wavelet transform. The amplitude of these coefficients
can be related to the local regularity of the solution, and consequently they
can be used as a powerful local refinement indicator. Here, we verify that the cellaveraged
multiresolution method, that is a mathematically more rigorous approach
than the popular scaled gradient or the heuristic error estimation by Richardson extrapolation,
generally leads to sparser mesh adaptation for commensurate or even smaller
numerical errors than the criteria traditionally used in SAMR. Numerical experiments
of classical advection and Riemann problems for inviscid gas dynamics are employed
to highlight the abilities and features of the new approach.
